 External Hard Drives Hi, I have a lot of games, and was just wondering if you could play the game off the external drive. Thanks       |

| External Hard Drives Not sure it would work as the data transfer rates will probably be much slower than an internal hard drive.

| External Hard Drives I play a couple games off my external, but they aren't good games, or graphically intensive. I wouldn't recommend it because of the reasons Dave stated

| External Hard Drives If you have a sufficient amount of RAM the only time that the HDD will be active is when the game is loading, as the memory will take most of the workload
